Hello all!
Recently purchased a Redding 9mm seater die to replace the Lee currently on my XL-750. It has the #12 seater plug which appears to be designed for FMJ-RN type projectiles, however it leaves a very distinctive ring around the bullet nose even when seating true FMJ projectiles. The cases are expanded and belled, so I know it’s not an excessive neck tension issue.
I’ve seen videos of guys fill the seater with epoxy and mold it to the projectile and distribute the force, as well as have heard of some using hot glue to do the same thing.
Has anyone done this, and if so are there any things I should be aware of?
